THANK YOU.We danced, we built sand sand castles, we rolled marbles, we sang songs, we were amazed, we ate candy floss, we made bass faces, we drank cider, we learned science, we spun tunes, we clapped, we hugged, we slept under canvas, we bounced, we painted, we made friends, we showered, we sipped tequila, we covered ourselves in glitter...We played all day and danced all night.

Grown from the '90's London party scene we're a small, independent Kent festival for grown up party people and their kids - people just like you, (and us)! With free activities for children and adults all day, bands, musicians, artists, science, theatre, performances and, awesome dance music from some of the UK's top independent labels. Ale festival bar, local beer and dozens of ciders, bubbles and cocktails, mountains of street food, our not-for-profit festi shop, free hot showers, proper clean toilets, glamping and campervan pitches with electric hook up.We're a not-for-profit social enterprise run completely by volunteers, so you can really feel the love.Tickets are capped - to keep the festival feeling small and lovely - and we sell out every year. We're a safe family festival, and we take our green credentials seriously. Bring friends, bring children, and see for yourself why The Argus gave us 5 stars, and Festival Kidz gave us Gold.We can't wait to play all day and dance all night in a field with you!

No Profits; No Problems!Chilled in a Field Festival is proud to be a not-for-profit social enterprise run entirely by volunteers. Every penny we make is put straight back into the event to make our festival more and more lovely every year. We pay all our performers, we pay all our taxes - including VAT (which means our prices have gone up a little this year) - and we support local small businesses. We give people, old and young, the chance to try their hand in the festival business. We give families the rare chance to play and create together. And, because all of the organisers do it for free, it means that everything we do is for the love of it - we hope you can felt the difference.
